For those that can’t stand this time of the year, my misery seeks company. What does it for you?
For me: aside from the usual family stuff:
I worked front-end in a post office back when that meant a line-up before I opened the doors to the end of the day when I had to inform the line-up that was still out the door that, yes, I was going to close on time. (Some didn’t take that well. For me it was just another Tuesday…)
It meant a lot of work with little thanks and I had to listen to the same shitty Xmas playlist over and over all day.
Edit/PS: The quick downvote sells it. Perfection. chefs kiss


The country and most of the world has gone to complete shit. I am broke and miserible. But I’m supposed to act merry, sing songs and buy shit for other people? It’s complete madness!
The people who can afford to celebrate christmas in bloated fashion aka the well-off people.
